The Aston Martin Owners Club will be in attendance

All Aston Martin owners were invited to drive into Beaulieu on Sunday 7th April and park up within the museum complex for a superb day out for both Aston Martin owners and enthusiasts.

All ages and models of Aston Martin were welcome, which provided a great opportunity to admire some stunning vehicles and to connect with fellow enthusiasts.

All participants had the opportunity to be chosen as the winner of the People’s Choice Award, selected by public vote. Prizes were awarded to the winner and runners-up.


Feltham Display

The Arena featured a display of Feltham era Aston Martins from the first decade of David Brown’s ownership of the manufacturer. The display by the Aston Martin Owners Club ranged from the 2-Litre Sports/DB1 introduced in 1948, through the DB2 and 2/4, to the DB MkIII of the late 1950s, James Bond’s choice of car in Ian Fleming’s novel Goldfinger and the first to use the classic Aston Martin grille shape that’s still in use today.

AMR 59 Display

Another unmissable display celebrated the Vantage AMR 59. Aston Martin built the special edition manual Vantage AMR 59 in 2019 to commemorate Aston Martin winning Le Mans in 1959. Just 59 cars were built and the standard colour scheme was the signature AMR Stirling Green with a front-to-back AML Lime Green stripe and a matching interior. These rare cars are also the last Astons with a manual gearbox.

DRIVING IN THE NEW FOREST

We are very lucky to be located in the heart of the New Forest, however this does offer up some unique hazards on the roads that require extra care as detailed in the Highway Code.

Please drive carefully and responsibly when attending our events and be aware of free-roaming animals and cyclists on the roads.

Due to the close proximity of our neighbours, please be respectful when entering and leaving the event.

We drove all the way from west Wales in our Aston Martin, weather was great, around 200 Aston's. Will be back next year!

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit with a good friend of mine and look forward to seeing you again. Fabulous cars, lovely weather today and was nice to have a chat to one or two owners.
